Fault Diagnosis - continued Symptoms Probable Cause Possible Remedy Inlet water pressures too high Check specification. Inlet check valves / flow regulators Flow rate too high Check and remedy. not fitted Digital Mixing Valve failure Contact Rada. Inlet filters or check valves blocked Check and remedy. Outlet spout, hose or handset Check and remedy.
